Day 31 - To the Future.....And Beyond!

To end our Month of Blogging 2014, Annie and I are going to speculate on each other's future selves for a few minutes ....

By December 1, 2015, Annie and Tommy will have finally broken down and adopted at least two more pets. Probably a small black cat named Ditso (named for its alarming intelligence or lack thereof) and a large hiking dog which Tommy will name Misty (short for mistake). They will have upgraded to a larger house or apartment, built to accommodate Tommy's books and Annie's cat toys. 

Puff's Instagram will continue to gain followers and will tie with Jessica Biel for 20th most followed Instagram. 

Annie tried a couple different jobs over the course of the year but this time it will be by choice, not by force. With any luck, she will discover the perfect job which of course will require her to wear skirts and dress pants every day. She will not take this job because yoga pants will continue to reign as number one in her life.

Annie will have numerous fights with Tommy, the best of which being whether $4.86 is a good value for a large coffee. The fight will end with Annie buying the large coffee every day for a week to prove her point. After spending $34.02 on coffee in a week, Annie will concede that Tommy was right. 

Annie & Tommy will travel with Tristinn & Alex to England over the summer during which time they will fight the rainstorm of the century, eat a unholy amount of sugar, and meet Princess Kate. Annie & Tristinn will eventually go out and do something slightly illegal and daring (like sneaking a snack into a movie) while Tommy & Alex stay in the hotel. 

But most important of all, Annie will enjoy her life with the same level of spunk and 'I do what I want' attitude that she does now. I'll let you know how she does next year.

2015 will be a big year for Tristinn. She will excel so much as a teacher that she will be recruited by prestigious universities around the world. But instead of settling she and Alex will travel around the world serving in short term positions because: counties > currencies. #Travel5ever. 

Speaking of hastags, Tristinn will continue to refuse participation in Instagram, Snapchat, and all of the other apps associated with millennials. Instead, she will mention in passing inventing an app that can be used to teleport people to those with whom they want to spend their time. Alex will go home and invent this app because he's a good listener. 

Alex and Tristinn will continue to have non-fights. Like about the significance of the world yolo on the 21st century, and the fastest route to church. They will proudly tell Annie about these "fights," but secretly they know their fighting skills are sub-par to Annie and Tommy. 

There will be an England trip in the summer of 2015, and it will be magical. There will be unexpected surprises, maybe in the form of jewelry... For Annie or Triss, we're not picky. Tommy and Alex will bond over their unwillingness to do things like walk beyond signs that say "keep out," or hide snacks in the bushes outside of a museum. 

Tristinn will continue to strive for 'bigger and bolder.' She will achieve feats, and conquer fears. She will inspire those around her, taking a few speaking gigs as an inspiration speaker where she will convince people to go after their goals after making exhaustive lists. 

At the end of 2015 Annie and Triss will prepare to leave for their trip walking from Maine to Seattle on the beach.  They'll write about it in their December blog next year, and it will be the greatest!
